I have a decent system in my cart right now but it is labeled as scratch and dent. How bad are these... damaged?

EDIT:

Dimenson 4700
2.8ghz 800mhz
1GB DDR2
160GB
DVDRW

~$316 shipped after coupon .. Worth it?


can I call later and add the 25% off coupon to the order? It is not getting to me fast enough and Im tired of modifying it just to keep it.

the cases are sometimes kind of jacked up, like a big scuff down the sides, but they perform just fine.

Dell cases are remarkably durable according to my experience in computer recycling (when things piss me off, that means I get to literally throw things). If the computer still works, it hasn't had the kind of trauma needed to SERIOUSLY jack it up....

Actually, that's not quite right. I tossed one Dell, and it hit at JUST the right angle and the side panel literally SHATTERED into a billion pieces - but it's still a very all-or-nothing deal. Either it's in pretty good shape, or it's totally obliterated... And totally obliterated wouldn't be listed as scratch and dent.
